It is a time when natural resources are limited and technology is advancing at an astronomical pace. Where you live is monitored; what you eat is engineered; and the person serving you is not a person at all. Its artificial. Gardening, housekeeping, companionship -- there is a robot for every need. Except love. Emotion is the last, controversial frontier in robot evolution. Robots are seen as sophisticated appliances; theyre not supposed to have feelings. But with so many parents not yet approved to have children, the possibilities abound. And Cybertronics Manufacturing has created the solution. His name is David (HALEY JOEL OSMENT). A robotic boy, the first programmed to love, David is adopted as a test case by a Cybertronics employee (SAM ROBARDS) and his wife (FRANCES OCONNOR), whose own terminally ill child has been cryogenically frozen until a cure can be found. Though he gradually becomes their child, with all the love and stewardship that entails, a series of unexpected circumstances make this life impossible for David. Without final acceptance by humans or machines, and armed only with Teddy, his supertoy teddy bear and protector, David embarks on a journey to discover where he truly belongs, uncovering a world in which the line between robot and machine is both terrifyingly vast and profoundly thin. Warner Bros. Pictures and DreamWorks present an Amblin/Stanley Kubrick production of a Steven Spielberg film, "A.I." starring Haley Joel Osment ("The Sixth Sense"), Jude Law ("The Talented Mr. Ripley"), Frances OConnor ("Mansfield Park," the upcoming "Windtalkers"), Sam Robards ("American Beauty"), Brendan Gleeson ("Mission: Impossible II") and William Hurt ("One True Thing"). Directed by Steven Spielberg, "A.I." is produced by Kathleen Kennedy, Steven Spielberg, and Bonnie Curtis. The screenplay, written by Spielberg, is based on a screen story by Ian Watson and the short story by acclaimed science fiction writer Brian Aldiss. Jan Harlan, Stanley Kubricks longtime executive producer, and Walter F. Parkes are the executive producers.
